Every facet exquisitely rendered

Rinek, Inc. is a luxury home builder based in Palm Coast, Florida. Their website and overall brand were feeling dated and did not reflect their company today.

Our team’s assignment:

redesign their logo

develop a blue-based color palette

rethink the site architecture to address each of their target markets

rewrite all site copy to be more succinct

leverage the photography for a more visual user experience

establish Rinek as the first choice for luxury homes in Florida’s most desirable communities.

RESULTS: a fresh, modern brand image and an easy-to-navigate, visually-driven, SEO-optimized site with clear user paths for a better user experience that drives an increased response rate. View site: http://rinekinc.com

This is one day’s observations from Himawari-8, a Japanese weather satellite, animated in a loop. It shows the western Pacific, Australia, and parts of Asia, Antarctica, and Alaska as they looked on one day in mid-2015. It covers 24 hours in 12 seconds – a time lapse factor of 7,200×.

The Gashlycrumb Tiniesis a quaintly morbid alphabet book written by Edward Gorey in 1963. The book recounts the unsettling deaths of 26 children, each representing a letter of the alphabet, in rhyming dactylic couplets.

Design is constantly evolving and in recent years has been very influenced by the imagery and style of yesteryear. This isn’t going away any time soon, in fact many design experts agree that while we are going to see the continuation of retro “designspiration” from the vintage ’50s, ’60s and ’70s to progress to the more colourful ’80s and ’90s.

After much discussion in our own marketing and design department, here are the current trends we’ve noted to watch.

you are water I’m water we’re all water in different containers that’s why it’s so easy to meet someday we’ll evaporate together

but even after the water’s gone we’ll probably point out to the containers and say, “that’s me there, that one.” we’re container minders

– Yoko Ono, 1967

Dr. Masaru Emoto’s Water Experiment reminds me of Yoko Ono’s “We’re all Water,” except this adds a fascinating metaphysical element. If words, music, and environment can alter water in such profound ways, imagine how we are all affected, considering humans are 60% water.

Through the 1990’s, Dr. Masaru Emoto performed a series of experiments observing the physical effect of words, prayers, music and environment on the crystalline structure of water. Emoto hired photographers to take pictures of water after being exposed to the different variables and subsequently frozen so that they would form crystalline structures. The results were nothing short of remarkable.
